Question, how do recruiters use the Skills section if LinkedIn? The skills section is limited to 50 skills and the skills required by employers are often worded differently or are very generic thats why I always get a low match in Skills

Don't design your resume even if you're a designer because you should have a portfolio they'll be looking at it Plus design is about communication and purpose The purpose of a resume is to highlight experience, NOT design

This is funny - I just updated my resume and many things I did are red flags from this video Thanks for the tips I will be updating my resume to return it to a more business professional style

The entire recruiting/hiring industry is bullshit Fuck all this, I'd rather not participate in the modern workplace at all
Comment from : Tecnocris

I am so glad to hear that references are becoming antiquated I feel like that is a lot like the skills graphic no-no --- useless and subjective People can hire someone to be a reference! It's better to have a solid resume, interview a background check that checks out
Comment from : Bluebird Traveller

Don't use a ton of keywords That ends up being a giant paragraph of nothing but hashtags and no one but the trashcan wants to read them I never got callbacks when I did this format on a resume When I did my own, my phone kept ringing brbrI do a splash image on the cover sheet showing I was in the military and inside, I listed my education and my relevant job history I don't include dates or that I worked at Taco Bell inbetween relevant jobs (don't like being unemployed) brbrThat's all a resume needs No employer wants to read a resume filled with buzz words or lengthy stuff like that My resume only states what is needed to get their attention and the interview reveals the rest
Comment from : Deydrania Diancecht

Granted, it is slowly dropping off my resume, but my job history is easier explained with a graph than anything I could do written Laid off and rehired from two different places having two part time jobs, and being deployed a couple of times It made no sense in written form, and every interview I had to walk the interviewer through the work history Until I did a timeline of my work history which explained everything at a glance (But I am in a semi-creative field)

As someone with a degree, an unimpressive internship, who is two years out of school, and has no experience in my field, applying is daunting I hope my food service experience doesn’t hinder me from being hired, it’s all I’ve got

For the city and state, if I live in a suburb of a major metro area and I’m applying to remote jobs, do you recommend I list my actual city or the major city?

I'm a dinosaurso i just asked 2 people in their 20's what they use for spaces between sentences and both looked at me funny They both said they don't care how many are used, but just always used 1 space They weren't "taught" either way 🤷🏼‍♂️
Comment from : G_Machine_Joe

Graphic Designers should also skip adding graphics - particularly if those graphics disrupt quick consumption of the resume details Showcase creativity in the portfoliobrbrBar charts are for the reasons you listed But also because there is no established metric 4/5? On what scale? For what aspects of the given domain?

04:06 can some buddy explain why photos are discouraged on American resumes? Employers are going to look us up in social media and Linkedin anyways It seems like a form of equality washing

I might just take out a loan and start some dumb business myself if I have to jump through all these damn hoops and please idiot recruiters who are scared of colors and reading just to work some miserable, soul-sucking job 9-5 Pain in the ass

12:00 if I see "quick learner" on a CV, I assume it means "I don't have the skills you need but I still hope to blag my way into a job!"

I'm confused I am a graphic designer I've been doing graphics since 1997; however, from the time I started doing graphics (1999) until now, if I remove irrelevant job history, there are huge gaps in my resume I worked on fishing boats, worked for dept of fish & wildlife, temp exec admin for c-level mgmt What do I include to apply as graphic designer in between 1999 and now? And 1999 is waaaay longer than 10 years ago Can anyone help me understand this new world?

I started this video with low expectations because I thought I had an excellent resume turns out I am using ridiculous clichés! :O Thank you brHas the job market changed in the past 5 years? I was recently laid off and looking for work (in tech) for the first time in five years, this is the first time I've received multiple rejection letters, "We regret to inform you" :( Nothing in two months I have never been out of work for more than two weeks What's up with that? I am highly skilled, lot's of good examples of prior work, and have a very and perhaps unique diversified career Maybe I need to do serious re-work on my resume and portfolio?brbrI'll look at your resume rocket fuel

Also make sure you write an amazing one page cover letter that shows how well you have researched the company This will set you apart more than you know
Comment from : Clay Adams

Let's not move past a point here - you need to be reasonably qualified for the job you're applying forbrThrowing out a resume at a job you have no qualifications for doesn't help anyone Yes, you might need to apply to X jobs to be able to collect your unemployment, but you might as well apply for things that are at least close to what you're qualified to do
Comment from : Michael Dunlap

The part at 3:00 on columns is very important I had a really fancy resume that was laid out in columns It looked amazing, but I was just not getting any response from it Turns out the automated sifting programs were only reading the first column and not the next one that had all the relevant information!! When I removed the columns I started to hear back from employers againbrbrSo do be careful using columns in a resume I learnt that the hard way
Comment from : Samantha James

I agree with most of this but the bigger issue is that a lot of companies are accepting your resume on a website and there they ask all the questions to say to avoid like full address or your minor in college My biggest pet peeve is forcing me remember dates, to the day, for a job duration The month shouldn't even matter Are people staying that short at a job that the month duration is making a difference?

Comment from : Byeteaching - Career, Resume, & Interview Tips

Another reason to not list past salary is if you are downgrading If you were formerly in a management position and burned out, you may be applying for a lesser paying, non-management job Interviewers can see that as a red flag in my experience
Comment from : keith angstadt

For work history that's more than 10 years ago, do you still list it on the resume with just one liner (title, company, start to end date) and skip all the bullets or not listing it on the resume at all?
Comment from : goldenstyx

I got rejected from a job recently because I wasn't in the same city Of course I'm going to relocate to that city that the job is in immediately after accepting a job offer but I didn't even get that far to tell them They didn't even allow me to put a cover letter in the application either which could have been a chance to mention that Really stupid and frustrating getting auto rejected because they don't realize from my resume alone that I'm going to relocate Now I just put the province I'm in and that's all

I have a lot of work experience in the past but I have not worked since 2014 And this is due to a long-term chronic illness that prevented me from doing simple things like walking around But now I'm better so how can I create a resume with that in mind?

I was part of a professional group and one of the presidential candidates for the group had an email address that I think had the word bikini in it I wrote her and said “this might not get past filters of some of the people in our association “

I'll take off old, unrelated employment I think I have an internship from 15 years ago! I'll take that off as well This is a good video for all levels professionals Thanks for posting
Comment from : 10akee

Almost no companies are taken resumes anymore They require you to fill out forms directly in their web sites, and they usually like to ask all the points you are recommending to avoid, stuff like race, gender, marital status etc

Absolutely wrong about microsoft skills As an employer if you have those youve got a better than average chance I've had too many people come up for job that isnt really computer heavy but it is required and had teach them from the ground up Microsoft skills are absolutely a plus!

I would think color would bring attention to your resume Many hiring managers overlook good resumes
Comment from : Harmony

what are your thoughts on including those generic terms like "independent self stater" "team player" "quick learner" etc in a resume when the job description lists those things? I see those terms used in a ton of job descriptions I apply for so I thought the ATS may be screening on those terms, do systems look for those generic terms if it is in the job description?
Comment from : Ashley Iz Cozy Gaming

Great advice all round My old resume was based on template of my brother's when he was applying for analyst roles I wanted to go into financial accounting and never seemed to make it past the initial screening I didn't end up getting anything with it When I changed my resume to a more simple design, I got more interviews and got the job I really want

You send the resume via email, they call you for an interview and at the interview they read your resume to you, i mean wtf, can´t wait for recruiters to be replaced by AI

Also…I mean, do you really want to work for an employer that would screen you out for having kids? They’re likely going to make demands on you that aren’t very compatible with your life situation…so unless you’re looking to sue a company or be miserable…
Comment from : whisperedaria

As an ATS manager, I’d also like to add to the graphics, avoid using a graphic or word art to represent anything like a name or qualification Some people like to put the logo or “badge” of the certification they’ve earned, rather than typing it out Best case: This will get ignored by the parser Worst case: the parser will decide it can’t get useable info out of your resume and will reject it
Comment from : whisperedaria

I am not a team player but yea, I wouldn't put that in my resume (even though they say don't lie 🤣)

In terms of the microsoft part, I still see a boatload of JDs that still ask if you have Microsoft skills so not sure if the AI reading the resume will cut you for not having it on your resume

I disagree with the assumption people know how to use Word and office programs Just last year I opened a word doc from someone who uses it every day and they didn’t know how to make tables The data was formatted using spaces to make the text align into columns and it was embarrassing I know of another person who printed an excel sheet, scanned the print into the computer and used that to email the data

In some states it's illegal for an employer to ask in any way what your salary history is It would be great if you could add this important fact to your videos A lot of workers don't even know about this and some are still intimated into disclosing their previous wages or salary
